    Aftermarket gauges to fit original openings

    Does any aftermarket company make a gauge set that will fit the openings on a 36 dash? My speedo works well enough, but the temp/oil/amp and ESPECIALLY the fuel gauge are unreliable.

    I need a 36 spare tire cover lock retainer clip. The clip holds the lock cylinder into the piece that keeps the faceplate from being removed for access to the 3 bolts that hold the tire on. I've tried a snap ring but it interferes with the spring action that pushes that locking plate off the big...

    36 temp gauge replacement

    I'm swapping out my 41 motor to a fresh built french block motor. The original temp gauge fitting is firmly stuck in the old head and attempts at removal have resulted in rounding off the flats on the fitting. Even vise grips won't budge the thing. I'm assuming I'll need to cut the wire that...

    reliable fuel gauge? anyone?

    I don't know about you guys, but I've been thorough a number of fuel gauge senders that were "supposed" to work correctly but didn't.
